Essential Random Gym Thoughts Revisited...

[King Koopa]

Finally joined the 5 days a week crowd

Been getting up so early to hit the gym 4 days of the week for months now. It got to the point that not going on the 5th was starting to feel weird. Loving this move so far...

Has anybody experimented with going to a leg-centric routine? I'm built like Steph Curry and my knees are gonna give out on me if I don't spend some more effort on strengthening my quads and the muscles around my kneecap

Yes, my wife stays grabbing the bottom of my ass. "You get that from squatting?" she says. She doesn't seem to really care about anything other than my butt and my oblique area.

Since I have been prepping to move I haven't really been on a consistent routine, just been doing random power/hypertrophy days depending on how I feel. Decided for the hell of it today I wanted to do one of those 12-16 set bro-splits for my chest.

Not sure how you once-per-week split people do this. shyt was just dumb, after my first 6 sets (my normal volume) I felt like I was getting absolutely nothing out of it. My chest was sufficiently spent to the point that I couldn't even feel it much anymore. Now I'm probably going to get pointless DOMS and shoulder pain too . Yall really out here working your shoulder girdle up to 4X per week? (chest, back, shoulders, arms in some splits).


Glad I got this workout out of my system. Back to an upper/lower split 2X/week for me. Permanently. Big ol gains, lack of pains ©

How do u guys deload? Besides idk if I should deload anyway I think the problem is that I cut carbs for too long.

I cut the volume in half and drop weights 20-30%

I'm so creative brehs

Instead of just zercher squats I also do rack pulls with the zercher barbell positioning. Glutes are pumped upper back is pumped what should I call this exercise brehs?? I'm thinkin zercher extensions


EDIT: they're zercher good mornings nothin new

Anyone know the rep range fighters (the ones that lift) normally stay around?


Im seriously thinking of getting into Jiujitsu & a little boxing.
I like the idea of working out for a specific task.
